Looks good! I have one of these I need to build myself.I like to see different approaches to the builds. It gives me different ideas. Thanks for the detailed pics!

A few months late but here's pics of my facehugger (I went pretty light on the color). I recently got an airbrush so I'll most likely repaint the whole thing.

Hi there
Great paint job. Love what you did with the nails. Very good. I see that you got the exact paint mixture for the mouth as I did. Nice job, mate
If I were you I'd leave it as it is. Thanks for posting and congrats on the job.

Thanks! I have mine displayed like it's climbing up the wall. I wanted it facing the other way but the wife said "hell no..." hehe.

Yeap, wives "can do that". Besides we've to admit it's not a pretty sight !!
I thought my Facehugger was "feeling" too lonely so decided to start building an also 1X1 vinyl model kit of the Chestburster ( http://www.therpf.com/f11/chestburster-1x1-vinyl-model-kit-wip-219508/)

I put one of these together about 15 years ago. I've since sold it but I filled mine with pieces of soft foam and ran a metal rod, mounted to a heavy wood base, up through the tail and into the body. It looked as though it was leaping from the ground at your face. It was a beautiful display. After seeing this, I'm seriously considering making another.

Too bad you sold it. From your description it really looks like a great display. Think you definitely should built another one
Any pics of your display?

Hi everyone. I was wondering what are your suggestions on molding the original (which was “movie classics” I believe)? I have an original copy I man handled from a friend and I've been wanting to recast it, for myself. I was thinking of plugging the sockets and building walls and just casting from the model. Unless there are other methods?
